PFOA will be restricted from July 4, 2020 in the EU. This means that from then on it will be illegal to manufacture and sell the substance and to use it in production or as an ingredient in products, including imported goods.

ChemSec has launched a corporate initiative to end the use of PFAS in products and supply chains. Six companies have so far joined the movement, including fashion giant H&M and multinational home improvement company Kingfisher, since the initiative was announced in the EU Parliament in February.
